HPE GreenLake for Identity & Access Management APIs

HPE GreenLake for Identity & Access Management (IAM) APIs allow programmatic access to users and workspace credentials. The IAM APIs allow you to perform tasks without the user interface. You can:

  • Invite, delete, and check user information.
  • Create, delete, update, and check workspace credential.

Features

  • User lifecycle management
  • Credential management

Access and permissions

You need the correct role and permissions to use the HPE GreenLake IAM APIs. A role is a group of permissions that you can specify and assign to users in your HPE GreenLake workspace. There are 3 basic role types distinguished by the privileges defined in the authorization service:

  • Administrator — has view, edit, and delete privileges in the workspace.
  • Operator — has view and edit privileges in the workspace.
  • Observer — has only view privileges in the workspace.

The following table lists Workspaces API calls along with the resource and permission required to make the call:

Workspaces API call Resource Permission required
GET /identity/v1/users User Account View
POST /identity/v1/users Authorization Service
Platform Customer Account
Edit
GET /identity/v1/users/{id} Platform Customer Account Edit
PUT /identity/v1/users/{id} Platform Customer Account View
DELETE /identity/v1/users/{id} User Account Delete
GET /workspaces/v1/credentials Platform Customer Account View
POST /workspaces/v1/credentials Platform Customer Account Edit
DELETE /workspaces/v1/credentials/{id} Platform Customer Account Delete
POST /workspaces/v1/credentials/{id}/reset Platform Customer Account Edit
